Submit Transcripts

Applicants who attend a Texas public high school should request transcripts to be sent electronically through the TREx system managed by the by their high school Registrar/Counselor.

Mail or Email

If TREx is not available, high schools may mail your transcript to the Office of Admissions and Recruitment, although these submission methods are not preferred and may result in processing delays.

NOTE:
If you attended a private/parochial high school or a high school outside of Texas, please have your school submit the Certification of Course Completion Equivalent to Recommended High School Program Form (RCCF form)  along with your transcript. 

Home-Schooled Applicants

Applicants who were home-schooled must submit a transcript that:

• Lists all courses are undertaken at each grade level, along with a brief description of the course content and information about the format of the course (in a classroom, via correspondence, online, etc.)
• Is signed by a school official, defined as the adult person who was primarily responsible for the education of the student

Special GED Requirements

Applicants who earned a GED must submit high school transcript(s) showing any coursework completed, along with a copy of the GED certificate.

Submit Test Scores

Ask testing agencies to send official reports of scores you earned on the SAT or ACT exams. (You must also submit TOEFL or IELTS scores if you are an international applicant.)

Official SAT (Scholastic Assessment Test), ACT (American College Test), GED (Test of General Educational Development), and/or TSI (Texas Success Iniative) scores must be sent to the Office of Admissions. To determine which scores you need to submit, visit Pathways to Admission.

When you ask the testing agency to send your scores, use the codes the agencies have designated for the university:

SAT School Code — 6829

ACT School Code — 4223

You may submit as many score reports as you like. If you submit more than one, we will consider the score from the single test date will benefit you the most. We will not, however, “superscore,” or combine scores from different test dates (a critical reading score from one test date with a mathematics score from another test date, for example).

We strongly encourage you to send us the results from all tests you take.

If you aren’t a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident but graduated or will graduate from a Texas high school, you may qualify for residency for tuition purposes and should submit the affidavit. The  application will prompt those who indicate they meet these criteria to download the appropriate form.
